At 1t Again.

LOUISVILLE, KY, June ga rumor
has reached here that Craig Tolliver, the
noted desperate, and his two brothers,
were killed at Moorhead this morning in
a general fight between factions. 1t is
thought fighting is still in progress. Tol.
liver was notified recently by friends of
the two Logan boys, lately killed, that he
leave the country or take. the conse
quences of his deeds.
LATER The killing of Tolliver has
been confirmed. This morning a band of
regulators, led by DR.. Logan, father of
the two boys, opened fire on Tolliver
and some OF his gang who we're in the
streets of Moorhead. Tolliver was killed
early in the engagement. and the fight as
sumed a bu~shwhacking character, the
men hiding behind horses and trees. Re.
ports differ as to the number killed, one
placing the number at five and another
stated that Craig Tolliver. two of his
brothers and thirteen men we're killed.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 22.-In con-
nection. with the rather startling state
ments brought by passengers from Homo.
lulu last week, predicting a revolution in
in the Hawaiian kingdom. it has been
disclosed that large shipments of arms
and ammunition have been made from
this port for Honolulu. The steamship

ried 900 Winchester rifles, "a, 900 cart.
ridges, four cases of revolvers and a guam
tity of powder. The schooner Forest
Queen carried thirteen cases of powder,
two cases of bullets and or case of pistols.
The barkentine Colusa carried two cases
of arms and ammunition. Shipments
by steamer and sailing vessels are not
very large, to the American mind, but
when the fact that the Hawaiian army can
muster but 1000 rifles is taken into con
sideration. the shipment Is one to cause
considerable speculation With a single
exception, the firms to whom these arms
were consigned are what are known as
missionary firms, opposed to the govern
ment. They were evidently not shipped
on account OF the government, since here
tofore arms for Hawaiian troops have
been ordered direct. Advices from Van
couver, British Columbia, are that the
British corvette Conquest starts for
Honolulu next Saturday, having re.
ceived secret orders from the foreign
Office in London. The flagship Triumph,
which is now at Esquimalt, is preparing
for sea and her destination unknown, but
it is supposed she will follow the Con
quest These war ships are-sent to guard
the interests of British settlers on the
islands. At the British consulate silence
is preserved as to the orders gwen the
men-of war.

Among Little Children.
Sent Good Money After Bad.

CINCINNATI, June 2.-It is stated that
Bank Examiner Powell, on Monday after
noon, demanded statement from the Fl.
deity National bank and received one
showing a balance on hand Of 81, 100, 900
cash. When he called for a view of this
money he was amazed to be shown a lead
pencil memorandum reading Wiltshire,
Eckert & Co 5000, 900, etc, through e
long list. There was no collateral and no
security whatever, and the officers were
unable to make any explanation Vice
President Harper concealed from the di
rectors his connection with the wheat deal.
1t is said he admitted yesterday that he
did not go into the wheat deal himself,
hut hat he honored an Overdraft for
Wiltshire for $4S, 600 and then put in the
rest 10 save that. He charges the whole
break TO the action of the Chicago board
of trade in making all wheat regular.
Previous to the exposure Harper stated
repeatedly he did not know who was in
the wheat deal and that he did not believe
it was managed at all in Cincinnati, but
conducted from California and Cleveland.
As the examination of the Fidelity Ma
tional bank proceeds the cavernous deficit
increases. 1t is now common talk that
the liabilities OF the bank will reach the
stupendous sum of Sc, ZOO, 600. while the
assets dwindle in proportion. 1t seems a
f~oregone conclusion that the depositors
will get almost next to nothing. This is
general talk, but unofficial. and cannot be
verified until the bank examiner makes
his report. 1t is stated to day that the
memorandum, which is a substitute for
collaterals, shows that Wiltshire used
81, 100, 900 of the banks money, and col
l~aterals for other loans were hypothecated
in New York and elsewhere. 1t is the
belief of some that Wiltshire acted as the
agent of Harper in conducting the wheat
deal and is not really a borrower.

Growing Plants in Moist Sponges

A correspondent in London Garden-
eng gives the following method of
growing Hyacinths and other bulbs in
sponges, which our lady readers can
easily try: The bulbs are bedded in
deep incisions made in large sponges,
which are closed snugly over and
around the bulbs, and then placed in
appropriately shaped vases. Water
moderately warmed-say $50 or 100
is then poured into the vase until it
reaches about half the hight of the
sponge. The bub begins to sprout in
two or three days, and in about six
weeks the plants are about as many
inches high, and continue to thrive I'M
til the flowers come out, of unusually
large size and perfect form. The
sponge is hidden after the first week
or two by sowing rape seed upon it,
the resultant growth comp etey cover
ing it with moss like vegetation. From
its porous, warm nature, the sponge
seems we'll adapted to the purpose, and
dilute fertilizing material might, it
would seem, be added to aid the quick
development of the plant

at least to the state by having our raw

not manufacturing enterprise in the

have not more of them is surely wonder.
In Fort Worth we should have oil, cotton

and a host of other enterprises. 1t
is possible that these will come to
US if we wait for them, but when we con-
slider that other cities are making strenu-
Gus efforts to secure these enterprises,
we cannot feel too certain. 1t is en-
couraging to see that our people are not
only bestirring themselves to invite out

hold of the matter themselves with aview
of developing the resources of the country.
